Mary spent half of her allowance going to the movies. She washed the family car and earned seven dollars. What is her weekly all
Nata [24]

Answer:If Mary spent half of her allowance the equation will begin with 1/2x or 0.5x where x is her allowance and 0.5 is half of her allowance spent. Mary also earned 7 dollars by washing the car so this will be added to her allowance spent.

The problem says that after Mary has spent half of her allowance at the movies she was left with 18 dollars so that means that the equation must be equal to 18.

The equation you want to set up is

0.5x+7=18

Where, 18-7=11

0.5x=11

11/.5 = x

x = $22

Thus, Mary has a weekly allowance of 22 dollars.

A stationary store has decided to accept a large shipment of ball-point pens if an inspection of 17 randomly selected pens yield
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted

Step-by-step explanation:

For each pen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a pen being defective is independent from other pens. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

17 randomly selected pens

This means that n = 17

(a) Find the probability that this shipment is accepted if 10% of the total shipment is defective. (Use 3 decimal places.)

This is P(X \leq 2) when p = 0.1. So

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{17,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{17} = 0.167

P(X = 1) = C_{17,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{16} = 0.315

P(X = 2) = C_{17,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{15} = 0.280

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.167 + 0.315 + 0.280 = 0.762

0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted
